Towards the end of the thread he gives a nice break-down on diff oil selection.

Hope this helps

Yeah, i searched and find this very interesting reply.

I´m always comparing my rc toys with my real world toys and in real world i HATE front driven cars.

Yes, a front driven car is easy to drive but you can´t steer with throttle.

Even my 911 which has 4WD has no lock in front and push/pull 40/60 lock rear...

So if i am coming out of a corner i hit the pedal and voila the back comes!

And if it´s raining the back comes to fast... :-)

My current emaxx has heavier oil in the front diff tha in the rear diff and i am not able to steer with the throttle. i acts as you describe it - the front pulls the car but the degree of understeering is horrible. Nothing for me.

No way doing a drift with my current emaxx!

But to make it short - please correct me if i am wrong:

Is it correct to a certain kind of degree to transfer the real world experiences to the rc car´s world?

Which means for me: i hate front driven cars, i like rear wheel drive. so the right setup for my emaxx would be heavier weight in the rear than in the front diff.

Correct?

I will now assemble the front diff with 5k oil, the back with 10k oil.

Marc.

P.S.: I Germany we say (The translation will be horrible, i hope you will understand me)

The Definition of understeering/oversteering:

I you CAN SEE the tree you are going to hit in the front of your car - THEN the car is UNDERSTEERING.

If you CAN´T SEE the tree you are going to hit no more through your front window, hmmm, then it was OVERSTEERING.

:-)
